YouTube Video Summarizer

This application uses OpenAI APIs to summarize YouTube videos. It downloads the audio stream of a YouTube video, transcribes the audio to text, and then summarizes the text transcript.

Features

• Downloads the audio stream of a YouTube video using the pytube library.
• Transcribes the audio to text using OpenAI's Whisper ASR system.
• Summarizes the text transcript using LangChain to prompt OpenAI's GPT-3.5 Turbo.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Python 3.7 or higher
• OpenAI API key

Installation
